When is a Steinway still a Steinway

For what it's worth: A Stradivarius violin may have a new neck grafted on(
and at a different length and angle), new strings, new bridge, new pegs and
tailpiece, had the top removed and scraped down thinner inside, most to the
varnish rubbed off, and any number of patches glued in, and yet it is still
marketed as a Strad (and priced as such)
